Disagreements and Fights

A time when I disagreed with a friend was because he didn’t wont to say for band practice to go play halo. He told me he wonted a brake so I told him that he could just to be nice. After I told him he could take his brake he didn’t come for a week and we had a lot of performances to do so we really needed to practice. He said that he is going to take a brake when ever he wonted and I disagreed with that and I told him that he has other responsibilities. He told us that if we won’t to sound good we needed him and threatened to leave the band if we don’t let him go play halo. I told him that we didn’t need him so we kicked him out. When he went to me drummer’s house he told him that he wonted to get back in so I take it he regretted say those things.

My Rage

When I was angry it was because I had some bully problems with a so called friend. I knew this guy sense I was in 2ed grade when we went back to school for 3ed grade we became even better friend. He was older then me so he was in different classes. He got new friends that mad him into a big butt hole. He would change when he was with his friends. I wisent jealous because of his new friends but because of how he was treating me. He was being a bully with me. He would push me around and say things to me. This went on for a whole year. When I got into 4th grade I had a teacher that was new to the school. He was a very cool guy and would make every thing interesting. One day we where reading a book about bullies so he asked us if we had any problems with people like them. Some how he knew that I did. It was funny because instead of telling me to go tell some one about it he told me to beat him up, to swing and him in the face and not close my eye. So later that day he came by and started to pick on me and I remembered what my teacher had said. So when he was push him and that hole pushing process started till I throw the first punch. When I looked at him he look surprised that I hit him. All I was hearing was beat him up. All of my friends where screaming at me to beat him up. I look around to see if any of his friends where coming and then I saw the principal talking to my teacher. I look at him and he gives me thumbs up telling me that he got the principle distracted. So the fight goes on and I got 4 hits on him and all he did was dirty my pants. He starts backing up to his friend so I went to my friends. My friends told me that they got my back and stuff. I ran to the bath room so he can follow me. When I looked back I saw him running after me. When I passed the gate I saw his friends coming so my friends got in there way. We where finishing our fight till my mom saw me so she send me to the office. We started to talk about why we started to fight and they all saw that I was really the victim here so he was the one that got in trouble. In the end of the day every one knew what had happened.

Descriptive Writing Assignment 2/8

1. Find a scene in Fahrenheit 451 that had characters who were afraid.

One scene in the book that a character was afraid was when Montage was about to get run over by the kids in the car. I think that every one would be scaered by that.

2. Take one of the characters in the scene and rewrite it (or something similar) from that person’s perspective.

When Montage was right in front of the kid’s car he would take out his flam thrower and burn them all. Then he would get cught by the cops and get arested. when he is in there he would brake out and burn down the police station.

Pages 81-90

1) A question I had was why did Guy start to rip off the pages of the bible??


2) Q: Faber jokingly proposes a plan of action and then starts to discuss it seriously with Montag. What is the plan of action? More importantly, why does he say it won’t work? Analyze his answer. Why won't it work?

A: The plan he was kidding about was that they where going to make copies of the bible and put it in fire mans houses and see if they burn down there houses, but then Faber says that it is going to work because the fire mans are not the problem. What he meant was that the fire men are just doing there job and there just getting rid of what people don’t use any more

9/11 Myths Light 175's windows

Claim: In the clam it talks about how people say that the plane (Flight 175) did not have any windows. A man called Marc Birnbach saw the plane and he said that it did not look like a commercial plane and that he did not see any windows on the sides of the palne.

Facts: The facts say the Birnbach was 2 miles away from the World Trade Center at the corner of President and Smith streets. he also said the he didnt even see the crash, he only herd the explosion.

well at first the clam had me going on its side but when Birnbach said that he did not see the plane hit it mad me think the he was not to shure of him self.

Things I love

Something i love to do is play my guitar. When i play my guitar all i hear is the sound of angels sinning. Every time i see it i wont to play it. It has some evil spell on me that i really like. Guitars are like very very hot girls to me atleast some of them. I have to treat them right with care and to make shure nothing happens to them. a place i really love is Guitar Center! That is my Heven. I get exited when im in the parking lot! When i look at the doors it like looking at the white light. I would run in to the store and try to play as many guitars as i can when where only there for strings.
